Abstract

- High emissivity coatings can be used to reduce energy and production costs in a petrochemical furnace. The high emissivity material is used to cover the inner surface of the furnace wall, enabling it to absorb and re-emit heat and thereby increase thermal efficiency. Conventionally, chromium oxide is used as a high emissivity coating in a steam cracking furnace, but it can only tolerate temperatures of 1100° C. or lower. Above this temperature, the high vapor pressure of chromium causes the coating material to become unstable and start to disintegrate, causing the rest to melt.
- Cerium oxide is a rare earth based material which is chemically stable and has a good thermal resistance, making it suitable for high temperature applications in extreme environments (e.g. in a furnace).
